SEW MOVIDRIVE MDX61B0040-5A3-4-00 | 4kW AC Inverter Drive

SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE B MDX61B0040-5A3-4-00 inverter — 4kW, 3-phase 380-500V AC, 6.6kVA output, IPOSplus control, configurable options.

Overview

The SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE B MDX61B0040-5A3-4-00 is a 4kW inverter drive from SEW’s proven MOVIDRIVE B family, built to be configured around your specific application rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all setup. Running on a 3-phase 380–500VAC supply, it delivers 6.6kVA of output power with a rated output current of 9.5A, and it’s recommended for 4kW motor loads under constant duty — a good match for continuous-running industrial equipment.

As with the rest of the MDX 60B/61B range, this unit comes with an integrated IPOSplus® positioning and sequence control system as standard, and it carries restart protection to EN954-1 Safety Category 3 out of the box. The “00” designation at the end of the type code marks this as the standard design — a solid, dependable baseline that can still be expanded with SEW’s modular option range if your application grows in complexity down the line. It’s part of a drive platform that scales from 0.55kW right up to 160kW, so if you’re standardizing across a facility, there’s plenty of headroom to stay within the same family.
